Answer:

x= -12

x=3

Step-by-step explanation:

in order to factorise the equation x² + 9x - 36

it will be expressed like this to make it a complete equation by subtracting 36 from both sides

x² + 9x - 36=0

the next step is to look for two numbers that when multiplied will give us -36 and when added together it will give us 9.

the numbers would be -3 and 12

so we have

x²-3x + 12x -36 =0

x(x-3) + 12(x-3) = 0

(x+12)(x-3)=0

we have,

x + 12 =0

x = -12

x-3 =0

x= 3

Therefore, the factors for x are -12 or 3.

Usimov [2.4K]

Given:

The equation is:

$x^2+3x-4$

Find-:

Binomials factor of the equation

Explanation-:

The quadratic equation,

$x^2+3x-4$

Solve for factor

$\begin{gathered} =x^2+3x-4 \\ \\ =x^2+4x-x-4 \\ \end{gathered}$

Then the factor is:

$\begin{gathered} =x^2+4x-x-4 \\ \\ =x(x+4)-1(x+4) \\ \\ =(x+4)(x-1) \end{gathered}$

So, the factor is x + 4

A segment with endpoints A (2, 1) and C (4, 7) is partitioned by a point B such that AB and BC form a 3:2 ratio. Find B.

sdas [7]

$\bf ~~~~~~~~~~~~\textit{internal division of a line segment} \\\\\\ A(2,1)\qquad C(4,7)\qquad \qquad \stackrel{\textit{ratio from A to C}}{3:2} \\\\\\ \cfrac{A\underline{B}}{\underline{B} C} = \cfrac{3}{2}\implies \cfrac{A}{C} = \cfrac{3}{2}\implies 2A=3C\implies 2(2,1)=3(4,7)\\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill\\\\ B=\left(\frac{\textit{sum of "x" values}}{\textit{sum of ratios}}\quad ,\quad \frac{\textit{sum of "y" values}}{\textit{sum of ratios}}\right)\\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill$

$\bf B=\left(\cfrac{(2\cdot 2)+(3\cdot 4)}{3+2}\quad ,\quad \cfrac{(2\cdot 1)+(3\cdot 7)}{3+2}\right)\implies B=\left( \cfrac{4+12}{5}~,~\cfrac{2+21}{5} \right) \\\\\\ B=\left(\cfrac{16}{5}~~,~~\cfrac{23}{5} \right)\implies B=\left( 3\frac{1}{5}~~,~~4\frac{3}{5} \right)$
